1) Most of the stuff listed is the same as with other religions. The exception is shunning which seems so cruel to me. But do people really do it ? It would be easy to get around.
2) Again... same as the others.
1. Yes. They take shunning VERY seriously. My family has not spoken to me or seen me in about 14 years now. None of them even called or tried to find out if I was okay during or after the fires in the Mac. There have been a few who try to get around shunning a family member but when they are found out, they are then shunned, as well. So, Yes. They take it very seriously.
2. Yes. They are much like other cults. That's the point. Some of the details may differ but it's all the same cult-like control.
